Heart x Head

We should try to make them smile Why bother? People deserve to be happy It isn't your responsibility I just want to spread love You'll only get hurt What makes you sure? Experience But- They will break you, and you will suffer picking up yourself. It's worth it Oh really? Yes, maybe they need to break others so they can heal You are making no sense I don't have to I am trying to protect you You are just trying to do your job Exactly Then allow me explore mine Being there for them won't change anything What makes you sure? Experience Well I don't believe you Alright, go on and see what happens. I will Back so soon? I felt it Felt what? I felt everything, The way they turn off from the world when they are sad, The amount of pressure they apply just to not let out a scream when they are in pain, The fear of abandonment, oh they fear to be lonely. And how did it feel? It hurt Really?? But I don't regret it Why not? You said they will break me Indeed But they didn't. They are the broken ones,they are sad and miserable. They just don't know how to get back up so they break others just so they don't have to be alone. Is that what you think? Yes, I felt it They deceived you. No, they didn't. Oh yes, they made you pity them, they made you carry a burden you didn't create. They intentionally made it hurt you. But I saw beyond their facade. What makes you sure? Because my presence was unknown to them and I saw the truth.
